    I have a 2004 prius with 49 K miles on it. The ABS light, aling with the brake light, and the brake warning buzzer came on. I took the car to the dealer, they replaced the relays and 12 Volt battery for $500. I took the car home, and 8 , miles out all the light came back on. now two weeks later the dealer finally recheduled me. Any ideas, I don't want the dealer to take me for a nother ride.

    You should ask for the $500 back 'cause they fixed the WRONG THING.
    Any dealer works carries warranty. If I were you, I would let the same dealer fix it AGAIN, and make sure they deduct $500 from whatever cost they will charge you (bring this up when you see the bill and the problem is fixed). At least ask for the $300 back since replacing the 12V for a 2004 is a good idea (costs about $200 at dealer).

    Good advice, I will do that. But do the abs systems fail in these cars? Does anyone know?
